Open the Task Manager > Details tab
End the task on all VALORANT, Riot Client and VANGUARD-related apps/services
Open the Control Panel > Uninstall a Program
Uninstall Riot VANGUARD
Open CMD as Admin and type these commands:
- sc delete vgc
- sc delete vgk
Navigate to your C: Drive, then Program Files
Find the VANGUARD folder and delete it
Open the Riot Client and click update
Restart your computer after the update

After you’re done with that:

Press Windows key + R
Type services.msc
Look for vgc
Right-click on vgc > Properties
Change the startup type to automatic
Start the services (if not started already)

Download auto runs from the system internal suite
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/autoruns

When you have it open press file, and then run as administrator
Then uncheck anything that is red or yellow
Except Vanguard and anything that fails to be unchecked
Restart your computer and then try the game again

Autoruns - Sysinternals

See what programs are configured to startup automatically when your system boots and you login.
